From the CLA
G by HAROLD WOLF President haroldwolf63@gmail.com
ood day, my fellow Canadian Lakers! Well, it’s hard to believe the July 4th weekend is behind us. Before I share all the fun things the CLA Board members have been up to, I’d like to take a minute to give a personal “thank you” to Lindsay Halcomb for all you do—your support is very much appreciated. The CLA Board members have been very busy since I wrote my last Laker letter, and it’s been GRRREAT! (I got that line from Tony the Tiger. Marsha worked at Kellogg Company for 40 years, and so I have heard it a lot!) It seems so nice planning events, hosting those events, and seeing so many happy Canadian Lakes members out and about. On June 9 the CLA hosted the Ferris Community Summer Band concert at the Castle. The weather was perfect, the band was wonderful, and the turnout was fantastic. The band members received a nice surprise when they were given cupcakes after the concert decorated in Ferris State colors with music note decorations on top (GRRREAT idea, dear!). We recently started a Welcome Wagon program. Our committee has put together a packet full of helpful information about our CLA, which two of our CLA Board members will deliver to new house owners. Our intention is to help make sure our new members get off to a good start in their new community. You can help us with this simply by contacting me if you know of a new owner or you get a new neighbor in the future. You can reach me at haroldwolf63@gmail.com, or phone 269-209-9871. We had our first Poker Run Contest and Shopping Spree Contest winners in June. Our CLA Board came up with these new contests to make sure no matter what the COVID-19 restrictions were, our CLA members would have something fun to look forward to, as well as have a chance to win some amazing prizes. Best Poker Hand winner is Denise Webb, who won a 2021-2022 Lakeside Motor Sports boat storage. For winning Most Cards Collected, Chris LaFave won two
